XAF Transactions Information

The <transactions> element contains information about all the posting transactions that you are reporting in the XAF file in a given period. This element includes the total number of transaction lines within the period specified on the Country Tax Report page.

You can also find the total debit and credit amount of all the transaction lines included in the report. The values are expressed in the base currency (the currency set on the subsidiary record). If you have the Full Multi-Book Accounting feature enabled, then the values are expressed in the currency used in the accounting book, whose transactions you are reporting in the XAF file.

Included in the <transactions> element is <journal>, which shows the fiscal year (<jrnlID> tag) and the period you are covering in the report (<desc> tag). This information is derived from the dates entered in the Start Period(custpage_start_period) and End Period (custpage_end_period) fields on the Country Tax Report page when you generate the XAF file.
